Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 26/03/2025Another, from my youth, when Viet Nam and the draft were high in our thoughts, also a metaphor re our current worries. “Stress”, 1969. #art @bsky.art 050
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 24/03/2025I have traveled a bit, and enjoy your photos. However, you are never going to see me consciously swimming with sharks. 🙀 110
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 16/03/2025During COVID l worked on a bunch of 3D graphics for an ePub. Here’s an example, “title page chapter 7”. @bsky.art #Digital3DArt 000
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Taking a break from doom scrolling, I call this one (just finished) “T-Rex”. #art @bsky.art #pastels 030

Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 23/02/20251. Woke up. 2. Fell out of bed. 3. Dragged a comb across my head. 4. I read the news today. 5. …Oh boy. 021

Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 18/02/2025For future reference, it’s easy to change the date. And for website coding, the text structure is a simple self-contained “div”, also available at no cost. 110
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 18/02/2025Mark, as a coder, I know LLMs have been around for a few years now, but to educate the public via crisis is absolutely the wrong approach. 000
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 17/02/2025Reminds me of Susan Collins, a boneless bag of bloated flesh. 040
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 16/02/20252005 working in the mountains in Colorado, and driving to work in a blizzard (I was from Florida- I didn’t know any better). I stopped at an overlook, and quick-sketched this site. I returned on a misty day and finished it. Blizzard, pastels, 21 x15 in. @bsky.art #art #artlover #artsky #artshare 060
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 09/02/2025Is this what we want? #art @bsky.art #political 020
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 08/02/2025Just for fun!!! First time I posed this it got compressed, too blurry. So I deleted. I compressed this one myself. So, if it looks good after uploading, it will stay. Otherwise, not. @bsky.art #art #artlover #artsky #artshare #animation #3Danimation 010

Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 06/02/2025Just a simple little, fat finger, teeny tiny misspelling, in thousands of lines of code in Production, and Kaboom - no checks go out. Hair on fire, WAIT, WHAT? Oops, no record of the changes. No staging, just production. WHERE is the sob? Oh, he left. 010
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 05/02/2025So I worked on the torso shading to pull it all together. Am not sure how much a casual view will notice the difference, but for me it’s more in tune with the natural flow of the dancer’s form. #art @bsky.art 020
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 03/02/2025They are all over 18, so adults. Very likely they will all face serious adult jail time when this is over. 100
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 30/01/2025On Leadership Where is our fearless leader? Afraid to come out and tell us, What a great man he is? During this tragic moment? He has the best brain. He has the best words. Where is his best hidden? Today. 010
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 26/01/2025Forwards in time to: “Iridescent Peeps”, oils, palette knife, 1987-ish. #art @bsky.art 060
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 21/01/2025Most appropriate for today, again going back in time, from the 1970 Sins of War: Control. Sketch & Painting. #art @bsky.art 050
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Poner la atención sanitaria en manos de empresas más interesadas en las ganancias que en la salud es un enfoque absolutamente equivocado. 011

Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 18/01/2025I very much like this. Working inside, the opportunity to go out, catch the moment. Beautiful. 120

Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 17/01/2025Big project finally finished. Oops. Delayed a week - had to switch ISP due to their lack of customer service. Meanwhile, again going back in time, from the Viet Nam angst years, 1970 Sins of War: Power. Sketch & Painting. #art @bsky.art 080
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 16/01/2025Love the pixelated edge on the Vampire Rave lettering; definitely looks like late 90s non-designer work. About then the designers began using tables and css styling; divs came later. Then, I mostly worked with Fireworks, Dreamweaver, and Flash (at that time Macromedia products). Early days! 000
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 15/01/2025Cool. Nice of Microsoft to let us know it’s OK to clone their software, as they are dismissing copyright claims to it. 020
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 08/01/2025Yikes. Lady, I will never forget your phrase, “mewling fuckwits”, until, maybe, now. 100
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 06/01/2025Late posting -> big project finally finished. Meanwhile, going back in time, from the Viet Nam angst years, 1970 Sins of War: Greed. Sketch & Painting. #art @bsky.art 0171

Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 29/12/2024I try to post once every three or four days. An iPad sketch from 2017, while testing an app: “Stretching Bronze” #art @bsky.art #digitalart 0120
Richard Hoeper @myarttools.bsky.social · 24/12/20242010, I worked in Dover, NH for some time. While there I used to pass this old abandoned house every day. One winter, after a big snow storm, I stopped and sketched this. It was cold and took two days to complete - quickly - you know, cold. 2252
